Sample at Daily Growler Powell during A Hoofy Hoppy Snakesgiving Pre Party + Mixing Bowl Asian Grill on 11/21/2018. Clear golden color with a medium ivory white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Sparse strings of lace. Piney hops, citrus and malt in the nose. Medium body with flavors of resiny hops, grapefruit and bready malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a lingering piney hop aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 10/17/2016. Pours lightly hazy/cloudy medium golden/light amber color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big tangerine, pineapple, peach, grapefruit, passion fruit, mango, lemon, orange zest, light pepper, pine, light honey, biscuit, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Fantastic aromas with awesome balance and complexity of bright citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge tangerine, pineapple, peach, grapefruit, passion fruit, mango, lemon, orange zest, light pepper, pine, light honey, biscuit, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Moderate pine/citrus peel/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of tangerine, pineapple, peach, grapefruit, passion fruit, mango, lemon/orange zest, pine, biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of bright citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness, increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately sticky/resinous, and grainy/creamy/bready balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 7.5%. Overall this is an incredible fresh hop IPA! All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the balanced bitterness. Very bright, juicy, and pretty dank on hop character; with just the right amount of malt body/sweetness for an amazingly well balanced IPA. A highly enjoyable offering.
